XRP fell sharply, dropping below $1.25 in a one-day decline of about 17%, its steepest daily loss since 2025. Despite the sell-off, exchange-traded funds tied to the asset recorded an estimated $24 million in weekly net inflows and have amassed roughly $1.2 billion in cumulative inflows since launching in November.
Price slumps below $1.25
The XRP price declined by approximately 17% over a 24-hour period, breaching the $1.25 level and marking its sharpest single-day drop since 2025. The move underscores ongoing volatility in large-cap digital assets and follows a period of relatively stable trading earlier in the year.
ETF inflows stay positive
Investment products offering exposure to XRP continued to attract capital. ETFs focused on the asset posted roughly $24 million in net inflows over the past week, bringing total net inflows to around $1.2 billion since their launch in November. The sustained inflows contrast with the spot market downturn and reflect continued demand from investors using regulated fund vehicles.
Background on XRP
XRP is the native digital asset of the XRP Ledger, a blockchain designed to facilitate fast, low-cost transfers and cross-border settlement. Its price has historically been sensitive to broader market conditions, liquidity shifts, and regulatory developments.
Market implications
The divergence between ETF inflows and spot price weakness highlights mixed sentiment across investor segments. While short-term traders reacted to downside volatility, fund flows indicate ongoing interest in longer-term, diversified exposure via exchange-traded products.
